Worsening Renal Function

Abstract Background Renal dysfunction is a frequent finding in patients hospitalized for acute heart failure (AHF). Worsening renal function (WRF) during hospitalization was found to be related with a poor outcome independently of baseline renal function. Early drop in systolic blood pressure (SBP) has shown to predict WRF in AHF. However, there have been few studies that reported the impact of on-admission heart rate (HR) on the relationship between early SBP drop and WRF in the elderly AHF. Purpose We assessed the hypothesis that early SBP drop predict WRF in the elderly patients with AHF, and investigated that on-admission HR might have an interaction with that relationship. Methods SBP and HR were measured on admission and 6 times during 48 hours in the 245 elderly AHF inpatients (82.9±6.0 years old, male 49.4%). WRF was defined as a serum creatinine increase of ≥0.3 mg/dL by Day 5. Early drop in SBP was calculated as the difference between admission and the lowest value measured during the first 48 hour of hospitalization. Results Early SBP drop (51.3 vs 32.5mmHg, p<0.01) and on-admission HR (79.3 vs 89.6bpm, p<0.05) were significantly different between the group with WRF (n=36) and the group without WRF (n=209). In the multiple logistic regression analysis adjusted for the confounders including age, gender, hypertension, left ventricular ejection fraction, total cholesterol, BNP, baseline creatinine, beta-blockade use, intravenous loop diuretic, isosorbide dinitrate and carperitide use, early SBP drop (OR: 1.003, 95% CI: 1.003–1.03, p<0.04) and on-admission HR (OR: 0.98, 95% CI: 0.96–0.99, p<0.01) were significantly associated with WRF. The interaction term of early SBP drop by on-admission HR did not have a significant association with WRF (p=0.3). Conclusions In the elderly AHF patients, exaggerated early SBP drop and lower on-admission HR were shown as significant independent predictors of WRF. These two factors were additively associated with WRF. Too much reduction in SBP and that in HR might be harmful to renal circulation in AHF.

Poor Outcomes

Abstract Background: Regardless of patients' baseline renal function, worsening renal function (WRF) during hospitalization is associated with poor outcomes. In individuals with acute heart failure (AHF), one predictor of WRF is an early drop in systolic blood pressure (SBP). Few studies have investigated WRF in elderly AHF patients or the influence of these patients' at-admission heart rate (HR) on the relationship between an early SBP drop SBP and the AHF. Methods: We measured the SBP and HR of 245 elderly AHF inpatients (82.9±6.0 years old, females 50.6%) at admission and another six times over the next 48 hr. We defined 'WRF' as a serum creatinine increase ≥0.3 mg/dL by Day 5 post-admission. We calculated the 'early SBP drop' as the difference between the admission SBP value and the lowest value during the first 48 hr of hospitalization. Results: There were significant differences between the 36 patients with WRF and the 209 patients without WRF: early SBP drop (51.3 vs. 32.5 mmHg, p<0.01) and at-admission HR (79.3 vs. 89.6 bpm, p<0.05), respectively. In the multiple logistic regression analysis adjusted for the confounders, early SBP drop (OR: 1.003, 95%CI: 1.003–1.03, p<0.04) and HR at-admission (OR: 0.98, 95%CI: 0.96–0.99, p<0.01) were significantly associated with WRF. No significant association was shown for the interaction term of early SBP drop ´ at-admission HR with WRF (p=0.3). Conclusions: In these elderly AHF patients, exaggerated early SBP drop and lower at-admission HR were significant independent predictors of WRF, and these factors were additively associated with WRF.

Overall Mortality

Abstract Background Heart failure (HF) is a major public health problem with increasing prevalence worldwide. It is associated with high mortality and poor quality of life due to recurrent and costly hospital admissions. Several studies have been conducted to describe HF risk predictors in different races, countries and health systems. Nonetheless, understanding population-specific determinants of HF outcomes remains a great challenge. We aim to evaluate predictors of 1-year survival of individuals with systolic heart failure from the GENIUS-HF cohort. Methods We enrolled 700 consecutive patients with systolic heart failure from the SPA outpatient clinic of the Heart Institute, a tertiary health-center in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Inclusion criteria were age between 18 and 80 years old with heart failure diagnosis of different etiologies and left ventricular ejection fraction ≤50% in the previous 2 years of enrollment on the cohort. We recorded baseline demographic and clinical characteristics and followed-up patients at 6 months intervals by telephone interview. Study data were collected and data quality assurance by the Research Electronic Data Capture tools. Time to death was studied using Cox proportional hazards models adjusted for demographic, clinical and socioeconomic variables and medication use. Results We screened 2314 consecutive patients for eligibility and enrolled 700 participants. The overall mortality was 6.8% (47 patients); the composite outcome of death and hospitalization was 17.7% (123 patients) and 1% (7 patients) have been submitted to heart transplantation after one year of enrollment. After multivariate adjustment, baseline values of blood urea nitrogen (HR 1.017; CI 95% 1.008–1.027; p < 0.001), brain natriuretic peptide (HR 1.695; CI 95% 1.347–2.134; p < 0.001) and systolic blood pressure (HR 0.982;CI 95% 0.969–0.995; p = 0.008) were independently associated with death within 1 year. Kaplan Meier curves showed that ischemic patients have worse survival free of death and hospitalization compared to other etiologies. Conclusions High levels of BUN and BNP and low systolic blood pressure were independent predictors of one-year overall mortality in our sample.

To explore the effect of trimetazidine (TMZ) in cardiomyopathy treatment. Literatures, related with TMZ treatment for cardiomyopathy, were retrieved between 1990 and February 2018 in the Pubmed, Embase, and Cochrane Library systems. Cardiopulmonary exercise testing [resting heart rate (RHR), peak heart rate (PHR), peak systolic blood pressure (PSBP), and resting systolic blood pressure (RSBP)] and echocardiographic results [left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular end-systolic volume (LVESV), left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV), systolic wall thickening score index (SWTSI), left ventricular end-systolic diameter (LVESD), and left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD)] were merged to detect the publication bias. Total 898 patients with cardiomyopathy were divided into two groups: TMZ-treated group (n=456) and control group (n=442). There was no difference in the improvement of cardiomyopathy between the TMZ and control group. No publication bias was shown for PHR (t= 0.9791, P=0.5067). There were significant differences in LVEF, LVESV, SWTSI, LVESD, and LVEDD between the TMZ group and the control group. TMZ-treatment significantly increased the level of LVEF (95% confidence interval (CI): 5.46–7.84, P<0.001), and reduced the level of LVESV (95% CI: −18.73 to −7.77, P<0.001), SWTSI (95% CI: −0.47 to −0.15, Z = −3.85, P=0.001), LVESD (95% CI: −1.09 to −0.08, P<0.001), and LVEDD (95% CI: −0.55 to −0.26, P=0.023). There was no publication bias except for LVEDV (t = 2.5456, P=0.0438). TMZ is effective for cardiomyopathy treatment and worth to popularize in clinic.

Background Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) accounts for half of heart failure hospitalizations, with limited data on predictors of mortality by sex and race. We evaluated for differences in predictors of all‐cause mortality by sex and race among hospitalized patients with HFpEF in the ARIC (Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities) Community Surveillance Study. Methods and Results Adjudicated HFpEF hospitalization events from 2005 to 2013 were analyzed from the ARIC Community Surveillance Study, comprising 4 US communities. Comparisons between clinical characteristics and mortality at 1 year were made by sex and race. Of 4335 adjudicated acute decompensated heart failure cases, 1892 cases (weighted n=8987) were categorized as HFpEF. Men had an increased risk of 1‐year mortality compared with women in adjusted analysis (hazard ratio [HR], 1.27; 95% CI, 1.06–1.52 [ P =0.01]). Black participants had lower mortality compared with White participants in unadjusted and adjusted analyses (HR, 0.79; 95% CI, 0.64–0.97 [ P =0.02]). Age, heart rate, worsening renal function, and low hemoglobin were associated with increased mortality in all subgroups. Higher body mass index was associated with improved survival in men, with borderline interaction by sex. Higher blood pressure was associated with improved survival among all groups, with significant interaction by race. Conclusions In a diverse HFpEF population, men had worse survival compared with women, and Black participants had improved survival compared with White participants. Age, heart rate, and worsening renal function were associated with increased mortality across all subgroups; high blood pressure was associated with decreased mortality with interaction by race. These insights into sex‐ and race‐based differences in predictors of mortality may help strategize targeted management of HFpEF.
